ANALYSIS/OPINION:
I’ll just say this for starters: I have no idea who President-elect Donald Trump will chose for his Cabinet. Many names have been bantered around by the press, some may come to fruition, others not. Regardless, here are my two cents on what I believe would be an unstoppable Trump administration:
Department of Homeland Security: Texas Rep. Mike McCaul
Mr. McCaul, who is head of the House Homeland Security Committee, has been an avid Trump supporter and has the experience to take on the agency he’s been overseeing. In his speech at the Republican National Convention this summer, Mr. McCaul said Mr. Trump’s presidency would “shake the ground” terrorists walk on and has criticized President Barack Obama’s policy on the Islamic State as being tone-deaf. He has a strong position on Russia, telling Mr. Trump they are “no friends of ours,” and has been at the forefront in calling for increased cybersecurity measures.
Defense: Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions
Mr. Sessions — who has supported Mr. Trump from the beginning — served as a captain in the U.S. Army Reserve for 13 years and currently sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee. Being a veteran on Capitol Hill, he can navigate the political waters of the Pentagon better than, say, Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, whose name is also being floated.
Attorney General: South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy

Maybe not so improbable when you consider that we now have a Raving Lunatic, Social Justice Warrior, Buffoon now serving in the position.
Under Secretary of Defense - Alan West
Dept of Interior - Sarah Palen
Prest Secretary - Ted ‘Motor City Madman’ Nugent!!!!
Steve Forbes for Treasury.
I score this one about 15% OK and 85% NO WAY.
You make a good point. Trump should head fake on this. Wait until one of the Commies on the Court leaves (one way or the other), then declare that no further additions to the Court are needed. Then conservatives are back to the majority. Of course, if he can get two young conservative justices, that would be even better.
Would love Kellyanne Conway as Press Secretary.
Yes KellyAnne .as Press Secretary or Chief of Staff..but look too at Brunell Donald-Kyei for press secretary. I have heard her on Fox many times and she is quite impressive. She would be first Black female Press Secretary,
Christy & Rogers need to be removed from that list
Trump will pick solid folks and also keep in mind the ramifications of a potential lost Senate/House seat - the antici.............pation is sweet.
Allen West needs to be on the team. We need people who have been in combat.
The most important and talented people ought to be free of day to day administration of some bureaucracy
Stormin Norman! I like Allen West or Oliver North LOL
///////////////////////
all three are good. Get them in there.
Choose no Senators unless a Republican governor can appoint their successors

exactLEEEE
I think Schwarzkopf is dead.
Build the Wall and DEPORT
ASAP ASAP ASAP
JOE ARPAIO HELL YES.
Illegal. A military officer cannot be named Secretary of Defense until more than 7 years has passed since they left active duty.
ANN COULTER AS PRESS SECRETARY
Kellyanne Conway’s achievements in the past four months rate a higher position than Press Secretary.
